Harness the power of development communities you didn't know you had with the new 'MyJadu API'. Empower the users of your website to create applications and 'mash-ups' around your content by utilising the Jadu web based, public development framework.
The MyJadu API provides a RESTful interface for your website - enabling you to retrieve content and data managed in your CMS in a way that can be easily linked or re-used in other applications and systems. The MyJadu REST API enables 3rd party developers to utilise a Jadu CMS site's internal content, data, sections and categories.
Using an API key issued through the Control Centre your users become an extension of your development team.
Tapping into the vast wealth of information within your website, developers can build applications for platforms such as the iPhone that enrich the user experience, in the same way APIs offered by sites such as Google and Flickr have enriched the experiences of their users.
You can rapidly develop mobile applications for devices such as the iPhone or Blackberry - to enable customers to tap into your content and data easily.
Example widget using the MyJadu API - pulling content from another site
Here is an example MyJadu API Homepage widget to draw in content from another Jadu CMS system. In the below example, we are collecting 3 FAQs from Manchester City Council's Jadu CMS.
Content
can be managed from a central location under Jadu CMS and published on
any device, mashed-up or linked to other content. Widgets can be
developed (as the example shows) and content and data in the CMS can be
delivered as a service - no technical skills required.
New example widgets will appear here over time, so please come back again soon.
Faqs from www.manchester.gov.uk
- A company is sand blasting and grit is everywhere. What can I do?
Buildings that are being sand blasted should be well covered in sheeting to control escape of grit. If the work area is not sheeted over, please contact Environmental Health, who will investigate and take action.
- A local pub/nightclub or takeaway/restaurant is attracting noise. Can I report this?
If a pub, nightclub, takeaway or restaurant is attracting a lot of noise, and disturbing local residents, you can contact Environmental Health who will investigate this.
Please see our Noise Pollution pages for further information on this.
- Accommodation certificates
An accommodation certificate can be supplied by your landlord - it's usually needed if you're sponsoring someone (a wife/husband for example) to join you in the UK to prove that you can accommodate them adequately.
However, if your Landlord cannot/will not supply such a certificate then we know many poeple have used their tenancy agreement as proof of accommodation, so this should be sufficient for home office purposes.
